these are a couple of issues to look at (see attached)
alignment - Saul knows about this - only happens on home page (using Firefox 
2.0.0.3 on MacBook Pro)
script-warning occurs on home page..

liz
did you get my message this morning? i think the problem is with the cross 
itself as it is a negative  x shape it should either be an affirmative plus 
or some sort of dot which indicates press. i do'nt think this is rocket 
science and you need to redesign the page just make it more pressable! susan
